Our annual Golf Classic was a tremendous success with picture-perfect weather, an enthusiastic gathering of golfers, and an inspiring evening in which we honored Manasquan Bank for its commitment to the local community both financially and through volunteerism.

Through its Community Foundation, Manasquan Bank provides essential, sustaining funding to over 25 hyper-local nonprofit organizations each year. Highlighting the critical importance of mental wellness and the bank’s ongoing support of MHA, CEO James S. Vaccaro asserted, “As we emerge from the pandemic each and every one of us knows people who are struggling, either emotionally, physically, or mentally, and it is incumbent upon all of us to provide the kind of support system that allows them to thrive in the marketplace.”

We were also honored to have County Commissioner Sue Kiley present about Monmouth ACTS, a public-private partnership that addresses pressing issues and needs throughout Monmouth County. As the Board liaison to the Human Services Department, including the Division of Mental Health & Addiction Services, Commissioner Kiley has been a staunch advocate for mental health services and a good friend to MHA.

Special thanks to our sponsors listed below, as well as all the golfers, cocktail party attendees, and donors for helping to support our programs at MHA.
